Uetwcen Sheldon's preacherlsm and
Howe's blasphemy, there Is but one
choice. Olve us Sheldon. The dogmat
lam of creed is bad enough, but the
dogmatism of complete negation and
unbelief is Infinitely worse. Sheldon
was at least learned in his propaganda,
but Howe was viciously ignorant in
his. The man who arbitrarily denies
the existence of things of which he
cannot possibly have any certain
knowledge is ju.st as irrational and Just
as dogmatic as the man who, with an
equal lack of knowledge, affirms the
existence of the same things. And
herein lies the bigotry, the inconsist
ency and the intolerance of agnosti
cism. The question of God, finality, Im
mortality, Is as old as the thought of
man, and reason is as insufficient to
its answer t.Klay as it was when the
Hindu dreamer - mused and suffered
beneath his tree, or when the Naar
tne, pierced upon his cross, sent up
the wail of despair that echoed down
the ages, "Father! Father: why hast
tiwu forsaken me?" Let not the
preo-eious editor allow a little learning
to disconcert him. We have as yet
picked up but the fewest grains of
knowledge on the shores of infinity,
and no syllogism based on them is ade
quate to predicate what is or Is nut.
A little science may have taught Edi
tor Howe that God is not, but It has
as surely and subtlely taught the
Christian that God is, and, to the ra
tional man, even though' he doubts,
it looks as if the Christian has decid
edly th-? advantage.
A Washington correspondent states
that the outlook is not at all favorable
for legislation at the present session
of congress for the construction of a
Pacific cable. There is entirely too
much diversify of opinion in the house
regal din? this question, and the sen
ate committee on naval aiTalrs has
ordered a favorable report on a cable
plan entirely different from any pro
posed in the house. The house com
mittee on interstate and foreign com
merce is divided into four factions on
this question. The house majority re
port provides for a cable to Hawaii,
the Philippines and Japan, to be built
under private contract and auspices,
the government for a period of twenty-five
years paying ' three hundred
thousand dollars annually to the com
pany constructing the cable. Govern
ment messages to be transmitted free
of charge. A minority report, signed
by four members, dissents In every
respect from this proposition. A sec
ond minority report, signed by three
members of the committee, opposes
the private ownership scheme and pro
poses that the government shall build
and own the cable. Another report,
signed by one member, Indicates a be
lief that a government cable would
benefit the public and the government
more than a private cable. Under the
majority report the government would
have absolute control of the cable to
be built by private parties In war time.
The senate bill, drawn by Hale of
Maine, provides for a cable only to
Hawaii, though It Is Intended to extend
It to the Philippines later. It provides:
"That to the end of establishing here
after telegraph communication be
tween the United States and the Phil
ippine islands and Japan, under the
waters of the Pacific ocean, there shall
be constructed under the supervision of
the secretary of the navy a submarine
telegraph cable or cable and connect
ing land lines from the city of Ban
Francisco, Cal., to the city of Hono
lulu, H. I., over such a route, as may
be deemed by the secretary of the navy
to be the most practicable," Three
f
million dollars U appropriated for this
purpose; and the secretary It author
ised to make additional surveys to as
certain what rout li best. Naval ves
sels may be used, if It be deemed best,
In helping with the construction of the
cable, which, after its completion. Is
to be transferred to the charge of the
pi.Rt master-general. The bill provide
that cables, wires. Instrument and
materials and appurtenances necessary
In laying the cable shall be of Ameri
can manufacture, provided they can
be procured at a cost not exceeding
1! per cent more than they can bo
obtained in foreign markets ThU bill
seems the most sensible of any sug
gested, and it w ould be very fortunate
If both the senate and house should
aRree upon It. If they do not, Ha
waii for a longer period will be In com
munication with the United States only
by steamer, and direct and satisfac
tory telegraph cable service with the
Philippines will be postponed a couple
of years.
IS IT DEMOCRACY OR T.RYAN'?
Th democrats cf the nuiuii must
soon determine whither there is a
democratic party, or whether there is
simply a Kryan party In opposition to
the republicans. If there is a demo
cratic party with democratic purposes
and democratic integrity, it will assert
itself in the national convention, and
nominate a candidate who will unite
rather than disintegrate the demo
cratic elements. If the once omnipo
tent democratic party of the nation
has degenerated Into a mere Rrynn
party, whose faith is In conflict with
all the achievements and tra li'lons of
democratic greatness, the coming con
test w ill close the career of democracy
in hopeless disaster.
Who desire 'the nomination of Mr.
Iran as the democratic candidate for
president? True, he has many enthu- j
siastlc followers, as had Clay, Blaine
and others to a vastly greater degree
and yet failed to reach the presidency
because unavailable; but the ablest
democratic Journals cC tre land, and
a large pruportinn of the ablest !emo-
(ratio leaders with hundreds of thous
ands of the more intelligent democratic
following, do no: believe in Pryan, and
will not support hi election. Of those
who voted for him in not one-
half believed in .he Chicago platform,
and nf those wlw dil believe in it at
that time, a large pi op. 1 1 'en of them
c!o not believe in it today.
The most anxious man for Mr.
Pryan's nomination is Mr. Lryan him
self, and the next most anxious man
for his nomination is President McK!n-
y. Chairman Ilanna, of the republi
can national committee, Is today vastly
more solicitious for the nomination of
Mr. Bryan by the democrats than is
Chairman Jones, of the democratic
committee, although Jones Is in entire
accord with Bryan's faith; and the
only apprehension the republican lead
ers have as to the coming contest, is
the possibility that some circumstance
may a rise between this and the nomi
nation to make the convention reject
Bryan, and nominate some candidate
upon whom the democrats can unite.
It should-decide thi democ rats not
to nominate any candidate who is
specially desired by the republicans, but
there is another factor In the contest
that should he even more ;srauaslve
to the democratic leaders aga.nst the
nomination of Bryan. Aguinuldo. the
leader of ihe murderous guerrillas In
the Philippines, Is today holding the
broken fragments of his army together
by the assurance that Mr. Bryan will
be elected president of the I'n'ted
States, and that the cause of the in
surgents will be triumphantly main
tained by the next administration of
i
our governB-?nt.
These are stubborn facts which the
democratic leaders should look In the
face. If there U & democratic party
they must place It above the irterest
and ambition of any man Under the
most favorable conditions the chances
would be r.gainU democratic success
with the present outlook, arid if there
is to be a hopeful battle fought this
year for the democracy, or a hopeful
democratic party for the future, the
next national convention must decide
that democracy and not Bryanism, in
spires the democratic people to battle
for their cause and their Tag. It Is
not merely a question of choosing be
tween defeat and possible success, but
It Is a far greater question Involving
the choice between a hopeful demo
cratic future and present democratic
annihilation
MR. HAMMOND'S OPINION.
Mr. A. B. Hammond has been In
terviewed concerning the local fishing
situation by the Portland Telegram,
which publishes the following arti
cle in last night's edition:
Just to what degree the cold-stor
age business will cut Into the regular
season's salmon pack is a matter that
interests many people. The season
opens April 15, but not a pound of sal

mon will lie canned before May 1, un
less, as before stated, the outlook Is
for an unusually large pack.
One thing- seems certain the can
nery association will not operate very
extensively, so long ns the cold stor
age business will be In a position to
absorb the supply.
A couple of stockholders in Portland,
one a director, are not backward In
declaring that the outlook Is somewhat
gloomy for the future of the associa
tion for money-making business. A. B.
Mammoml, the president of the Colum
bia, River Packers Association, was
seen and asked for a statement In re
gard to these criticisms, lie said that
he did not care to engage in news
paper controversy nor to take the time
to answer men, whether they were
stockholders or directors, who would
I not make statements over their own
signatures. If they were men inough
to do tha:, he would give them his at
tention, not otherwise.
He said, furthermore, ttut the as
sieiaciun was not running Its business
in ttie newspapers. In case the direc
tors were taking advantage, the stock
holders, he said, had their proper re
course thj courts. If every uistin-gui.-hed
stockholder or director would
run into print, the papers, he thought,
ould be kept busy publishing 's-tuff"
dial interested no one except the. vic
tims of iluir own pride, and Injured
legitimate business.
In speaking tur.her, Mr. Hammond
;ud luat the proper place for any di
rector to make a 'kick" was before
tae quarterly meeting of the board of
.aivetors, and not to outsiders. There
Here cerium ctlo-r 'gentlemen,' he
saio, who needed to learn tue Hist
piii.iiples of business ethics. For In -s.uiice,
these men whom ne would not
line to call gnilemi'n, buuuht each a
oi.are of stock in the cmnoir.r, with
me sole purpose of learning whut was
B"ing oil. le characterised it us a
cheap way of trying to learn a compe
titor's business methods, fur tht pur
pose of self-profit.
These men, each with their cne lit
.le share, he said, attended meetings
and hoped to learn all about the work
ings of the association. The books of
the association, he said, were open
for the inspection of the directors at
any time.
As the directors were placed In
power by the stockholders, the latter
should be satisfied with their choice
tar enough to trust to their discretion.
Some of these same competitors, he
said, who went around gaining en
trance to meetings by means of their
little share of stock, had their eyes
opened by the manner in which the
association saved money to the stock
holders. He thought a very humor
ous picture could be made by repre
senting the men referred to as hold
ing out a share of stock to the door
keeper of the association.
Mr. Hammond repeated that he had
nothing to say for publication, and
refused to discuss the future move
ments of the combine, It is learned,
however, that the association Is ac
tively prevaring to secure as much as
it can of the spring pack. It will rent
fishing boats on shares and pay so
much a pound for salmon caught by
fishermen owning their own boats and
gearing.
A SLAP IN THE FACE.
The Dalles Chronicle.
The Oregonian has done a grave
wrong both to the friends of Senator
iiclJiide and to those of Mr. Moody,
lir. Ale-Bride's friends frankly and
cjuietly conceded a solid Wasco county
delegation to Mr. Moody. They mani
fested no desire whatever, at any time,
to thwart the wishes of Mr, Moody's
friends. The latter assures the Chron
icle that they made it a point to com
mit no act nor deed that could be Just
ly construed as unfriendly to Mr. Mc
Bride. They were in no sense antag
onizing the Interests of Mr. McBiide.
Their single purpose was the nomina
tion of Mr. Moody. The primaries
passed without opposition. The Ore
gonian correspondent sent to his paper
a plain, truthful, unvarnished state
ment of the result. The Oregonian
edited the dlfcpatch and added the fol
lowing clause: "The McBride Influence
failed utterly to materialize." This
was not In the original, which we have
seen. The result is that the friends
of Mr. McBride consider they have
been slapped In the face. But the Ore
gonian did It and is wholly responsi
ble for an act that is regretted here
on all hands. The Oregonian has the
faculty of raising more hell In a minute
than it can down in a century. .. Let it
fight Mr. McBride if It wants to, but
let it not compromise others who de
sire peace.
